EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures the delicate beauty of a frosted orange moth and angle shades, showcasing the intricate details of these rare and elusive creatures. The handcoloured copperplate engraving by Johann Carl Bock after Eugenius Johann Christoph Espers is a true work of art, highlighting the exquisite patterns and colors of these butterflies in all their glory.
The frosted orange moth, also known as Gortyna flavago, is a scarce species with its vibrant orange hues standing out against the backdrop of nature. Its counterpart, the angle shades (Phlogophora meticulosa), exhibits a more subtle color palette but is equally captivating with its unique markings.
As you gaze upon this print, you can't help but marvel at the wonders of nature and the incredible diversity found within the world of butterflies. From the silver syngrapha interrogationis to the plain golden autographa jota, each butterfly featured in this engraving tells its own story through its distinctive characteristics.
This piece serves as a reminder of the beauty that surrounds us every day, waiting to be discovered and appreciated. It's a testament to the skill and dedication of artists like Bock and Esper who have immortalized these creatures for generations to come.
